Jovica Cvetkovic: “It was one of our worst matches in the last times”

Taylor Crabb praised his team´s discipline

Farhad Salafzoon, Captain of Iran: “We played a good first set, but, after that, the team stopped playing and, sincerely, I do not know what happened”.

Taylor Crabb, Captain of United States: “We had some trouble in receiving their float serves in the first set. From the second on, we got better on that and our block worked really well. Iran has tall players and we were extremely disciplined on blocking”.

Jovica Cvetkovic, Coach of Iran: “There is no much to say about this match. Of course the American played really well, but I am sure we helped them a lot playing so bad. It was one of our worst matches in the last times”.

John Hawks IV, Coach of United States: “I am very pleased with my team. We adjusted our receiving after the first set and we managed to win using our defensive skills again. Taylor Sander was amazing. Scoring 22 block points against 10 of Iran is outstanding for us. We had three very tough teams ahead of us in this group and now there are only two left”.
